You're just a mile away One thousand five tiny steps from here But if I brought you near Would you believe when I say It seems like yesterday That I could reach out and touch your face But as I fall from grace Into whose arms can I lay
It's always much too late We get the signs We can't communicate Or turn back time
(Chorus:) So what will be now Do you feel somehow Not so together and not quite as strong Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
I need a healing wind To cool the flame burning in my sight It must accelerate For two wrongs they don't make a right
And all these solitaires, lone victories Wars fought in isolation, with none to please
(Chorus)
(Instrumental break)
The future's still uncertain The past is done
(Chorus)
Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
